    The document describes a method of automatic leak compensation for a ventilator. It works by determining a baseline level of support, such as 3 L/min, to act as a buffer. When leaks change, the system detects this and adjusts the compensation flow accordingly to maintain the baseline buffer and ensure the patient continues receiving the set level of support despite leaks. It does this by continuously comparing inspiratory and expiratory base flows.

    Flow
    Automatic Leak Compensation L/min

    • Determine a level of “Baseline”


    support to be maintained. Baseline = 3L / min

    • This will act as a buffer so that when (Bias Flow)

    the amount of leak changes, the


    “automatic” leak compensation system
    has time to react.
